    You need better disclaimers. When you said you could take a crowler in one sitting I just assumed you meant drinking it.

    Haven’t visited this thread in a while, and, uh, I’m not entirely sure I like the direction it is heading.

    An unforeseen future nestled somewhere in time.
    Unsuspecting victims no warnings, no signs.
    Judgment day the second coming arrives.
    Before you see the light you must die...

    Double Barrel VSOJ is on draft at Hopleaf, Chicagoans. Holy fuck, what a glorious beer.

    To paraphrase some band from Liverpool, in the end, the thunder you take is equal to the thundertaker Rev makes. Had my penultimate can from the latest release. Outstanding. While I do not expect them to release it again in the upcoming DW season, hope it comes back with the following one at least.

    Looks like the Revolution/Half Acre collaboration involves honey!

    Repo man is beautiful. Make sure the old man stout lover in your life buys some of this. It’s so well made. Bought a 6pk, have a feeling I’ll be back for more next week

    Cross post here, but Revolution has a Smoked Barleywine on the Taproom draft list.

    Very interested to try it!

    They banned him when in the subsequent video opened that crowler and poured in into cups for two girls without using his hands.

    I was thinking more along the lines of "One GuyFawkes Two Crowlers."

    Rev's latest email mentions that for the upcoming release of A Little Crazy, it "will be seeing its last days in six-pack cans at Revolution". Doesn't mention if/how they will release it in the future (hometown seasonal, draft only, etc) but this release being qualified in the email as "A Final Run for A Little Crazy" seems ominous.

    The abv could make it suitable for a 4-16oz pack- keep the price the same, but you get 12 less ozs

    My thoughts exactly. Do it as a seasonal release and drive price up and then sales should go up since it will be "limited" when they only make it every so often.

    A Little Crazy has always been a seasonal, released in the coldest months of winter.

    I get the sense this will move to draft only or get retired. Hope I’m wrong. I buy it every year

    My youngest brother introduced me to this beer several years ago, IIRC the second Rev beer I tried after Anti-Hero. It has been a staple every year since I came across it, and I will really miss the fact I won’t have 12-24 cans to enjoy at home during the Winter / Spring.

    Wish more people liked the style, as this beer is widely regarded as excellent (ranked 6th on BA).

    Hoping The Beer Temple can ship to Nevada, so I can send my brother 6-12 cans and perhaps a few more locals).

    What I meant to say was that I finally came across a can of Coconut Deth.

    $12.99 for the can. Hopefully it's damn good.
